Electrical resistance tomography(ERT)는 적절하게 설계된 전류를 대지 지하에 주입하여 이에 따른 인가전압을 대지 경계에서 측정한 후 이를 근거로 ERT의 영상복원 알고리즘에서 대지 지하의 대지저항률 분포를 얻고 대지 지하에 뭍힌 물체를 크기와 위치, 그리고 저항률에 대한 특성을 파악할 수 있는 기술이다. 본 논문에서는 ERT의 영상복원 기법으로 Gauss-Newton, TLS와 SIRT 방법들을 살펴본다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 TLS 방법을 이용한 ERT 영상복원의 성능이 Gauss-Newton와 SIRT방법에 의해 얻어진 결과보다 향상되는 것을 보이도록 한다.

The objectives of this study were to classify the head shapes of Korean men and to suggest computer tomography as a new body measurement method. The 23 head measurement items of 760 men, aged more than 18 in Sizekorea 2004 database were used to analyze, measured by using statistical methods. Factor analysis, cluster analysis and duncan test were performed using these data. Through factor analysis, 5 factors were extracted upon factor scores and those factors comprised 70.91% for the total variances. The head and face shapes were categorized as 5 types-triangle, round, oval, long, rectangle. We decided for the type 1(triangle) to standard head shape since this type was the most observed. 21 participants were measured using computed tomography(CT). The measured data of skin and skeleton and the standard head shapes were illustrated.

Optical coherence tomography(OCT) is a noninvasive optical imaging tool for biomedical applications. OCT can provide depth resolved two/three dimensional morphological images on biological samples. In this paper, we integrated an OCT system that was composed of an SLED(Superluminescent Light Emitting Diode, ${\lambda}_0$=1305 nm bandwith= 141 nm), a reference arm adopting a rapid scanning optical delay line(RSOD) to get high speed imaging, and a sample arm that used a micro electro mechanical systems(MEMS) scanning mirror. The sample arm contained a compact probe for imaging dental structures. The performance of the system was evaluated by imaging in-vivo human teeth with dental calculus, and the results indicated distinct appearance of dental calculus from enamel, gum or decayed teeth. The developed probe and system could successfully confirm the presence of dental calculus with a very high spatial resolution($6{\mu}m$).

In this study we investigate the use of 2D and 3D scanning optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology for use in apple blotch diagnosis. In order to test the possible application of OCT as a detection tool for apple trees affected by Marssonina coronaria, we conducted several experiments and compared the results from both healthy and infected leaves. Using OCT, we found several distinctive features in the subsurface boundary regions of both the diseased and healthy leaves. Our results indicate that leaves from diseased trees, while still appearing healthy, can be affected by M. coronaria. The A-scan analysis method confirmed that the boundaries found under the subsurface layers can be faint. This shows that M. coronaria can exert its influence on entire apple trees (as opposed to only on leaves with lesions) once it infects healthy trees. Our results indicate that OCT can be used as a noninvasive tool for the diagnosis of fungal disease in apple trees. Microscopic imaging results, performed as a histological study for comparison, correlated well with the OCT results.

Emission computed tomography에 있어서 Bayesian방법에 근거한 통계학적 영상 재구성법이 수년간에 걸쳐 중요한 관심사로 대두되어 왔다. 이는 Bayesian 접근 방법을 사용할 경우 영상 재구성 알고리즘에 재구성하고자 하는 영상에 대한 사전정보를 포함시킬 수 있기 때문이었다. 이러한 방법은 경우에 따라 향상된 성능을 보이고 있으나, 막대한 계산시간으로 인해 실제 임상에 적용되기가 매우 어려운 상황이다. 한편, filtered backprojection(FBP)은 알고리즘 자체가 간단하고 계산시간도 매우 단축되므로 대부분의 임상에 널리 적용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Bayesian 영상 재구성에서 매우 유용하게 사용되는 spline 모델을 FBP의 고주파 감쇠를 위한 정칙자로 사용함으로써 FBP 영상 재구성에 Bayesian 방법과 유사한 효과를 얻을 수 있음을 보인다.

In this paper, we propose a application of conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) for generation of contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) image. Two types of CT data which were the enhanced and non-enhanced were used and applied by the histogram equalization for adjusting image intensities. In order to validate the generation of contrast enhanced CT data, the structural similarity index measurement (SSIM) was performed. Prepared generated contrast CT data were analyzed the statistical analysis using paired sample t-test. In order to apply the optimized algorithm for the lymph node cancer, they were calculated by short to long axis ratio (S/L) method. In the case of the model trained with CT data and their histogram equalized SSIM were $0.905{\pm}0.048$ and $0.908{\pm}0.047$. The tumor S/L of generated contrast enhanced CT data were validated similar to the ground truth when they were compared to scanned contrast enhanced CT data. It is expected that advantages of Generated contrast enhanced CT data based on deep learning are a cost-effective and less radiation exposure as well as further anatomical information with non-enhanced CT data.

We have developed an eigenvalue method for impedance computed tomography to improve the ill-conditioning problem. We have compared the performance of this method and the balancing method by computer simulations. As a result, it was proved that this method is better than the balancing method very much. It was found that the initial value condition is not so severe to obtain good images.

In this paper, the interpolation schemes for Direct Fourier Reconstruction in Diffraction Tomography are discussed. The interpolator using circular sampling theorem is modified so that the reconstructed image may be closer to original object than those produced with other interpolators. Reconstructed images obtained by computer simulations with several interpolators including that derived in this paper are compared to original object: two concentric cylinders.

We have developed an ultra wide-field of view Optical Coherence Tomography(OCT) which has capability to 2D and 3D views of cross-sectional structure of in vivo human retina. Conventional OCT has a limitation in visualizing the entire retina due to a reduced field of view. We designed an optical setup to significantly improve the lateral scanning range to be more than 20 mm. The entire human retinal structure in 2D and 3D was reported in this paper with the developed OCT system. Also, we empirically searched an optimized image size for real time visualization by analyzing variation of the frame rate with different lateral scan points. The size was concluded to be $1024{\times}2000{\times}300$ pixels which took 9 seconds for visualization.
